Student work

My Classes  generally run for 8 weeks, Monday or Tuesday evenings,

6:30-9:30 pm or Tuesday mornings from 10am till 1 pm. The classroom is at the Blossom Facility on Oakes Road, in Brecksville, Ohio.

For more information, visit: www.BrecksvilleArts.org. 

The class is not just for experiennced people, but I ask that beginners who sign up, to PLEASE have an "simple" design in mind. Most students finish more than 4 projects during the 8 weeks.

Soldering & Polishing

This video shows a student soldering and polishing 

Lila has taken 2 sessions (16 weeks) over the year and half.  She is an experienced beader.   She incorporates the silver with copper accent pieces she makes with her beaded jewelry.

This will give you an idea of what the class is about . . .  you design and make your own pieces.  I help you along with the process.  It doesn't matter whether you are experienced or a novice.
